How to Prepare for a Prostate Massage

Prostate massage is a healthy and pleasurable activity that can be enjoyed as part of your intimate life. Many men feel more comfortable receiving anal touch after they have prepared. Preparation can range from a simple shower to a complete internal rinse. This document will outline your options for preparation and suggest easy steps for maintaining hygiene while enjoying the pleasures and health benefits of prostate massage.

The minimum preparation for enjoying prostate stimulation is a regular bowel movement followed by complete external cleansing. Washing the external anal area with warm soap and water is often enough to allow you to feel at ease.

If you would like to rinse internally, you have a few easy options. A disposable bulb enema is quick and easy. Fill the bulb with plain warm water, gently insert the nozzle into your anus and squeeze the bulb, immediately allowing the water to rinse out. Repeat several times, or until the water runs clear. Never use hot or cold water- aim for wrist-temperature warm.

Larger enema bags are not required for prostate massage, and may cause discomfort. If you are interested in receiving a full colonic enema, it is recommended that you see a professional or do additional research before trying it at home. If you ever feel cramps or discomfort, stop your enema immediately and allow the water to pass.

When you feel sufficiently prepared, clean and ready for your prostate massage, begin gathering the supplies you will need. Vinyl or nitrile gloves are great for all kinds of erotic touch. They feel smooth and soft on sensitive skin, and when you are finished the gloves can be stripped and disposed of easily. Make sure you take the time to find gloves to fit the person giving the massage, as the touch will feel much better when the gloves fit taut against the skin.

Another essential tool for pleasurable prostate massage is lubricant. Water-based lubricants are now readily found in every major drugstore and even many supermarkets. Use plenty of lube, reapplying when needed. External and internal anal massage can be highly arousing, without a moment of discomfort. If you experience any pain at any point in the massage, slow down or stop. There is no need to endure anything.

If you and your partner are just beginning to explore prostate massage, take the time to communicate and share any excitement, questions or concerns. Learning more about the anatomy of the prostate and male sexual system may make you more comfortable with trying prostate massage. Education is excellent preparation for sharing new intimate acts, and allows you both to continue with more confidence.

Preparing for prostate massage can make this intimate exchange more pleasurable and allow you to relax deeper into the experience. Thorough cleansing prior to the massage will take your worries away, and proper hygiene including gloves and lubricant will make the experience more enjoyable for both you and your partner.
